So the R7000 has only one Failsafe? On my Spectum Rxers, there are two failsafes and they both have diferent conditions that casue them to function.Binding with the light flashing and bind jumper pulled out sets the Preset Failsafe. Binding with the light flashing and bind jumper still in place sets the SmartSafe.
SmartSafe
SmartSafe is automatically selected during the standard binding procedure and is
ideal for electric aircraft as well as most gas- and glow-powered aircraft.
How SmartSafe Works
When the Receiver is Powered On without a Transmitter Signal
If you turn on the Rxer before you turn on the transmitter, SmartSafe prevents the
throttle from functioning and drives all other channels to their preset positions.
When there is a Loss of Signal in Flight
If the receiver loses the transmitter’s signal in flight, or any other time after a
successful connection has been made, SmartSafe sets the throttle to the position it
was in during the binding process. All other channels hold the positions they were in
at signal loss.
How to Program the Receiver for SmartSafe
Simply move the throttle to a desired in-flight failsafe position (typically this is all the
way back) and bind the receiver to the transmitter. Leave the bind plug in the receiver
during the entire binding process. Remove the bind plug only after a connection has
been made and the controls are functioning normally.
Preset Failsafe
Preset Failsafe allows you to set the specific control positions for all channels to go
to should you encounter signal loss in flight or at any other time after a successful
Connection has been made. Preset failsafe is typically used to prevent fly-aways
in high-performance models by deploying spoilers in sailplanes or putting gas- and
glow-powered models into a slight turn at reduced throttle.
How to Program Preset Failsafe Settings
Insert the bind plug and power on the receiver. When the receiver’s LED lights begin
to blink indicating it is in bind mode, remove the bind plug before binding the
transmitter to the receiver. The LED lights on the receiver continue to blink. Move
your transmitter’s control sticks and switches to the desired Preset Failsafe positions
then turn it on in bind mode. The system should connect in less than 15 seconds.
